Overview
Quick Pick is the fourth in a series following "Beyond Evil", "Runaway Mom", and "The Order". In this case, Private Investigator Frank McLaughlin befriends a homeless man (Jonas Jackson) on the streets of Dallas, Texas. Jonas is a displaced person from New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina. Frank's curse of curiosity drives him to learn what is behind Jonas' obsession over some deeply guarded event from his distant past that continues to torment his daily thoughts.
When Frank gives Jonas five dollars, Jonas returns two dollars and asks him to purchase a "Quick Pick" Power Ball lottery ticket for him. When Jonas wins the first prize, he hires Frank to manage his affairs and do some investigative work for him. Together, they embark on a relentless crusade that includes the purchase of a yacht (Sea Venture) and the hiring of a crew that is eclectic and diverse. In search of answers to Jonas' unrevealed past and a desire for redemption and closure, they sail off into the Caribbean. In their search they will face treacherous weather, pirates and death defying odds.
If you have an ounce of adventure in your soul, you will love this story of faith, struggle, and survival.
